Best Bada Savory Indian Snack Recipes
BADA - SAVORY INDIAN SNACK
A very popular snack sold in street stalls in India. You can substitute 1 cup of chana dal in place of the 1 cup total of urad and moong dals. I haven't made this yet - yield is rough estimate. Time estimate does not include soaking dal. Can be made vegan by using vegetable oil.

A popular Indian snack sold on roadsides. It looks like a long recipe because I have included the recipes for two chutneys. Usually, we have those on hand. These chutneys are also available in Indian grocery stores.
